Canopy cleaning in Ibsley
We clean canopies in Ibsley when the kitchen isn’t cooking: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Cooking equipment is turned off and cooled, then covered so the kitchen is ready when we go. If you have a canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection and grease dripping from the canopy edge, we can put it right, from plenum chambers, baffle filters and canopy light fittings onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Ibsley, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

How the job changes from site to site
School and staff canteen kitchens
Canteen staff see the canopy, not the duct behind it. We clean it and the plenum behind the filters, so what’s out of sight is dealt with too.
Grease troughs and gutters
A blocked or full trough is the usual cause of grease dripping from the canopy. We clean it out so the grease has somewhere to go.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Ibsley
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
The process
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up, and we clear up before we go. Somewhere as small as Ibsley, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The canopy is checked from photos or on a visit.
- Out of hours, the range is switched off, cooled and covered.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- The canopy shell, seams, troughs and gutters are degreased inside and out.
- We put the filters back, tidy up and photograph the finished canopy.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Grease, kitchens and Ibsley
Fire safety in Ibsley falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Food hygiene inspections in Ibsley are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Martins, or anywhere in Ibsley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Do you need canopy cleaning in Ibsley?
Moisture in the air mixes with the grease on the canopy. Water vapour condenses on the cooler canopy surfaces and drips, carrying grease with it. The result is sticky streaks and drips onto the range.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Grease filters blocking between washes
- Drips from the canopy onto the range
- Greasy streaks across the canopy
- Grease channels that no longer drain
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Leonard's Hospital (about 5.6 miles south-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Refit filters the right way round and fully seated
- Check all filters are fitted before service
- Wipe the canopy down at close every day
- Use non-abrasive cloths on the hood
We recommend when the canopy, or the whole system, should next be cleaned. That date is based on your cooking hours and what we found, in line with BESA guidance.
Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
